14 is too young. 16-19 year olds mabey but 14 is too young to take an interst. At 14 you should just be enjoying the film for the characters and the plot. I know alot of kids have an interst in vampire books.
I mean even In the first movie of the Twightlight series, Bella was 17 years old. People are maturing too quickly in this day and age.

Embarassed to say that I am in my early 30s and have had a small crush on Robert Pattison since Harry Potter. Was recently "forced" into reading the Twilight series and was hooked. Combine the two and it's beyond embarassing. I don't really care whether or not he is playing Edward but all the attention just lets you see: a) he does look amazing in the movie… although much better when he's himself and not all "perfect". And b) his sense of humor… too cute. Now if I was 14 this would be acceptable, but I'm not :( Anyway… all that said people need to respect the other people around them in these situations. You're not impressing anyone while trampling the kid next to you.

I cannot believe that this happened. I am a huge Twilight fan and I would classify myself as pretty infatuated but this is ridiculous. It is true that Robert Pattinson is a mere actor who is portraying a character and I do believe that people need to put that in perspective. When I read about these mall signing events that were set up to promote the film I thought that they were a bad idea. Trying to cram someone like Robert Pattinson into a Hot Topic for a short two hours and expecting girls (and women) to be orderly with their opportunity of meeting him ticking down with the clock is a recipe for disaster.

I do think that Twilight fans should calm down and, as I have said before, gain some perspective that this is ONLY a book series and movie. I also think that responsibility should also be placed on those that set up the event (both the PR and mall event coordinators). They should have anticipated a larger crowd due to the growing audience and they should have had more security. I am not saying that the attendees were not responsible, but this phenomenon (especially surrounding Pattinson) has reached a level equal to boy-band fandom and event officials should use such events as models for preparation.

I'm pretty sure that the HP books were a lot more popular, but their fans were never this crazy.
